A self taught programmer with over 15 years of experience, he fondly recollects the days of coding in C and assembly with a trusted copy of K&R by the side.

David Bailey

Back End Developer

I was a starving artist in Paris, painting for pennies, scrounging for food and hiding from the rain and bad attitudes. Once, when I was begging for money in the Montmarte, a man passed and saw my potential in Software Engineering and offered me a job. "I believe in you," he said, "what is your name?" "Pierre Dominique Maurier," I said. "I'll call you David," he replied. That man was John Boyd and now I build software for ShopSavvy. I like to paint too.
